“I don't wish to be compare myself with some of my youth national team mates because everyone’s destiny differs.

“I remain grateful to God for what I have achieved in football - I have been two World Cups, U17 and U20. I have been invited to the Super Eagles, both CHAN and the main team. I have also played international football with Dolphins FC.  So, I give God the glory.”
